Foreword
This document (EN 590:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 19 “Gaseous and liquid fuels, lubricants and related products of petroleum, synthetic and biological origin”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by March 2014, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 2014
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights This document supersedes EN 590:2009+A1:2010
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association [5].
The requirements of the European Fuels Directive 98/70/EC [1], including amendments 2003/17/EC [2], 2009/30/EC [3] and 2011/63/EC [4], have been included Dates are included with all normative test method references in order to comply with the requirements of the European Commission; with the accompanying assurance by CEN/TC 19 that any referenced updated versions will always give similar accuracy and the same or better precision (see [4])
Significant technical changes between this European Standard and the previous edition are:
— Inclusion of the revised EN 14214 FAME specification
— Specific requirements concerning the limitation of use of methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT) as required by the EC have been incorporated
— Addition of the Fuel Ignition Tester (EN 16144) as an alternate test method to the CFR engine test
— Addition of Simulated Distillation by gas chromatography (GC), EN ISO 3924, as an alternate test method
to distillation by EN ISO 3405
— Introduction of the improved EDXRF determination technique for low sulfur contents, EN ISO 13032, in replacement of EN ISO 20847
Annex A is normative and contains the precision data generated on the test methods, which are the result of inter-laboratory testing, carried out by working groups of CEN/TC 19 Many of the test methods included in this standard were the subject of inter-laboratory testing to determine the applicability of the method and its
precision in relation to blends of automotive diesel fuel containing 10 % (V/V) or higher of different sources of
fatty acid methyl esters (FAME)
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom

Trang 83 Sampling
Samples shall be taken as described in EN ISO 3170 or EN ISO 3171 and/or in accordance with the
requirements of national standards or regulations for the sampling of automotive diesel fuel The national
requirements shall be set out in detail or shall be referred to by reference in a National Annex to this European
Standard
In view of the sensitivity of some of the test methods referred to in this European Standard, particular attention
shall be paid to compliance with any guidance on sampling containers which is included in the test method
standard
4 Pump marking
Information to be marked on dispensing pumps used for delivering automotive diesel fuel, and the dimensions
of the mark shall be in accordance with the requirements of national standards or regulations for the marking
of pumps for automotive diesel fuel Such requirements shall be set out in detail or shall be referred to by
reference in a National Annex to this European Standard
Labelling shall be clearly visible, easily legible and displayed at any point where diesel with metallic additives
is made available to consumers The label shall contain: “Contains metallic additives” in the national
language(s) and shall be laid down in the National Annex to this document
5 Requirements and test methods
5.1 Dyes and markers
The use of dyes or markers is allowed
5.2 Additives
5.2.1 General
In order to improve the performance quality, the use of additives is allowed Suitable fuel additives without
known harmful side-effects are recommended in the appropriate amount, to help to avoid deterioration of
driveability and emissions control durability Other technical means with equivalent effect may also be used
NOTE Deposit forming tendency test methods suitable for routine control purposes have not yet been identified and
developed
5.2.2 Methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT)
When methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT) is used, a specific labelling is required (see also
Clause 4)
MMT is a metallic additive that can be used in diesel The presence of the MMT in diesel shall be limited to
6 mg of manganese per litre from 1 January 2011 The limit shall be 2 mg of manganese per litre from
1 January 2014
NOTE These requirements are subject to review following an assessment by the European Commission
5.3 Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME)
Diesel fuel may contain up to 7,0 % (V/V) of FAME complying with EN 14214:2012, in which case the
climate-dependent requirements set out in 5.4.2 of EN 14214:2012 do not apply
NOTE 1 A suitable method for the separation and identification of FAME is given in EN 14331 [6]
BS EN 590:2013
EN 590:2013 (E)
Climate dependent requirements for FAME as a blending component for use in diesel fuel according to this document are set out in 5.4.3 of EN 14214:2012 The specific grades shall be specified on a national basis according to local climatic conditions and the FAME volume in the diesel fuel
The finished blend of diesel fuel shall also comply with the climate dependent requirements set out in 5.6 of this document
Cold flow additives, when used in FAME, should be specifically matched to the base diesel fuel and FAME quality to ensure correct performance consistent with the requirements set out in this European Standard The choice could result in incompatibility between the cold flow additives used in the FAME and the diesel fuel The choice of cold flow additive technology should be a contractual matter between the fuel blender and the FAME supplier taking into account the climatic-dependent requirements of the finished diesel fuel
NOTE 2 Cold flow requirements for FAME as a blend component in diesel fuel are set out in Tables 3a and 3b and the National Annex of EN 14214:2012, in order to control maximum content of saturated monoglycerides in the final EN 590 blend to ensure trouble-free operation Work is on-going to identify a suitable test method for saturated monoglycerides or
a performance test to control this aspect of low temperature performance
In order to improve the oxidation stability of FAME, it is strongly recommended to add oxidation stability enhancing additives to FAME at the production stage and before storage, providing an oxidation stability similar to that obtained with 1 000 mg/kg of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxytoluene (BHT, officially designated by IUPAC as 2,6-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-methylphenol)
The similar action may be read as providing oxidation stability performance at least equal to that obtained with
1 000 mg/kg of BHT
CAUTION — There is a potential risk of precipitate formation with oxidation stability enhancing additives at low temperatures in low aromatic arctic fuel Caution should therefore be taken in the choice of oxidation stability enhancing additives to arctic grade FAME
5.4 Other (bio-) components
Limits for adding FAME are set for technical reasons Limits for FAME do not apply to other (renewable) hydrocarbons such as Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), Gas To Liquid (GTL) or Biomass To Liquid (BTL) derived hydrocarbons, since these paraffinic diesel components are allowed in any proportions provided that the final blend complies with the requirements of EN 590 The use of renewable feedstock at refineries is also allowed provided that the final fuel meets the requirements of EN 590
NOTE A draft fuel specification for paraffinic diesel fuel has been developed [7]
5.5 Generally applicable requirements and related test methods
5.5.1 When tested by the methods indicated in Table 1, automotive diesel fuel shall be in accordance with the
limits specified in Table 1 The test methods listed in Table 1 have been assessed for application to automotive diesel containing FAME Precision data from inter-laboratory test programmes are given in normative Annex A, where these were found to be different from the precision data given in the test methods for neat petroleum products
5.5.2 The limiting value for the carbon residue given in Table 1 is based on product prior to addition of ignition
improver, if used If a value exceeding the limit is obtained on finished fuel in the market, EN ISO 13759 shall
be used as an indicator of the presence of a nitrate-containing compound If an ignition improver is thus proved present, the limit value for the carbon residue of the product under test cannot be applied The use of
additives does not exempt the manufacturer from meeting the requirement of maximum 0,30 % (m/m) of
carbon residue prior to addition of additives
5.5.3 Diesel fuel shall be free from any adulterant or contaminant that may render the fuel unacceptable for
use in diesel engine vehicles
NOTE For further information on preventing contamination by water or sediment that may occur in the supply chain,
or for cross-contamination, it is advisable to check CEN/TR 15367–1 [8] or CEN/TR 15367–3 [9] respectively
